On May 5, 2018, the San Pedro Creek Culture Park was unveiled to the community with a grand opening celebration.
One year later, we look back at the exciting year of culture, art, nature — and purpose — that brought the people of Bexar County together.
The San Pedro Creek Culture Park honors the history of the sacred creek, improves flood control and water quality, and provides a respite for the community. Thousands of visitors have experienced the park that goes farther than just being beautiful.
